For the 91AD, you have two options --
1. Get the RS-91 software with OPC-1529 data cable ($50 + S/H from Universal

Another option folks seem not to be mentioning, is free software (still need to

could always give that a shot before buying software. YMMV.

If you haven't already, I'd recommend you consider the non-ICOM approach, which
will allow you to save significant money. This would be using a gmsk modem or

flat to the modulator and pin 6 is flat from the discriminator and it
is true FM (no PM), then it may be a good candidate. Just start with
my article and the pinout at
John, anyone:
Is there a difference between the Satoshi and Enicomms node adapters
that I need to consider?
Yes, the VXR-5000 does have discriminator output. I believe the TX side
can be optioned to be flat, but don't know much beyond that, so I'll

The ID880H and the IC80AD both use the same programming cable and the same
software. The Icom software has a pulldown menu at the top to choose whether
you are working with the 880 or the 80. All
